The Department of Clinical Sciences at the Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine is seeking applicants to fill a full-time, 12-month appointment. Depending on experience, qualifications and interest, the successful candidate may be appointed to either a tenure-track (Assistant/Associate/Full Professor) or non-tenure track (Clinical Assistant/Associate/Full Professor) position in Small Animal Emergency and Critical Care.

The successful candidate will be expected to participate in teaching, clinical service, and research/scholarly activity. Teaching responsibilities include the clinical and didactic instructional activities of professional veterinary medicine and postgraduate training programs related to emergency and critical care medicine. Current coursework taught by ECC faculty to veterinary and graduate students includes but is not limited to: physical diagnosis, small animal emergency and critical care, toxicology, professional communications, hemolymphatics, cardiology, critical care literature reviews, and advanced critical care pathophysiology. Clinical service and research responsibilities are negotiable and will depend on the successful candidate’s interests and the type of appointment, i.e. clinical vs. tenure track appointment. There is ample opportunity to participate in established research programs on campus with current collaborations with the Scott Ritchey Research Center, the Canine Performances Sciences unit, the College of Engineering, and the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry.

The successful applicant will join a current team of three DACVECC faculty, six ACVECC residents, and one ECC specialty intern. The team is further supported by 8 small animal rotating interns, 2 Emergency Medicine Professors of Practice, 17 intensive care and intermediate care veterinary technicians/assistants, and one licensed social worker. The program provides 24-hour, same-day referral care designed to serve the needs of veterinarians in the Auburn-Opelika community as well as the greater Southeastern United States.
